I haven’t applied to HDR, but I handle intern candidate hiring selection for the last couple of years. Companies don’t expect you to know a lot but to come with an enthusiastic and collaborative energy. A huge factor now is how the individual will be able to work with many different teams quickly, as your time as an intern in limited. Focus on active listening (instead of listening to respond, listen to understand and learn) and own what you do as a task representing you and not something to just complete and walk away from. Always come to the interview armed with questions. You should be interviewing the company as much as they are interviewing you. I always have a better sense of an candidate who has great questions. Good luck!

I work with HDR as a client they will look after you if you have the willingness to learn. I've had candidates go in as grads and come out as seniors who have worked on pretty cool projects

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received. I then contacted the POC who scheduled the interview (he is an HCL employee) and he said that I have been shortlisted and will receive HR call shortly. This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?

Bain & Company Bain & Company Do you have any insights into what they are expecting in the second (last) round? I saw that there are two cases and a presentation. Are they more interested in professionalism than the "analytical" skills assessed in the first round? Do you have any more insights into the presentation?

Many thanks in advance
